June 2010

We climbed Red Rock. Very cool! We went to the Zoo--very full of animals! We cut holes in a box so Wyatt could see were he was going when he puts boxes on his head. Wyatt not so gently loves his sister. Wyatt climbs in Bella's toy.

Tent or something like that.
Another water spill, this is a very very small version of what usually happens



Swimming!



unloading the dishwasher for me, mostly just throwing the silverware back in.

Taking pics


I am taking Natalies advice. I took my camera with me today and captured the moments. Notice the cereal on the rug and the naked bum. For some reason Wyatt likes to be naked.

just another day in paradise

Happy Sunday! Just curious does any one else ever feel like all they do is take care of their kids? This is my basic 20 things i do each day.
1. Lets start early shall we 3.am Bella is awake looking for some love and food.
2. 6 am Bella is awakelooking for some love and food
3. 8am Bella is awake for good this time looking for some you guessed it love and food.
4. Wyatt is also awake looking for some food and some sesame street, sometimes he sleeps til 9 though:)
5. We play and eat and clean up food and change diapers I also like toshower at some point that is usually cut short becuase one or both of the kids wants some love or food. 10am
6. I try and go somewhere and do an activity to get some energy out of Wyatt. But before we leave Bella needs some food. 11am
7. 11.30 yep it takes awhile to lock and load when you must pack diapers snacks cars juice wipes etc.
8. The activity usually ends up with me chasing Wyatt somewhere while holding a car seat. If it is the activity called Walmart it usually ends with Wyatt screaming for a banana while the cashier weighs them in. Or reaching for the candy, gift cards, etc and screaming cause i wont let him throw them all on the floor.
9. home again after loading them back in the car and giving Wyatt his banana the he smeared all over himself and sometimes the car window.
10.Clean the car window and Wyatt sometimes I just give up on that cause Bella needs to be held and givin love and more food.
11. Lunch we only use ketchup on the days I feel like giving Wyatt a bath after lunch.
12. Nap, well not really anymore but I still try everyday! Wyatt usually ends up throwing all the blanckets on the floor while yelling mooooom over and over again. Sometimes I just leave him there so i can clean up lunch and give Bella some more food.
13. I try and do some chores and prep dinner while Wyatt dumps something out
14. Bella sleeps for 20 mins until Wyatt wakes her up
15. Dinner seems to take allnight for some reason maybe it is because it takes exeptionally long to prepare it while battling the kiddos. I usually dont get a chance to eat it until Dan comes home to tag team it with me. which is at 9:30
16. Get Wyatt ready for bed, bath, book, songs, prayers. Attempt to put him to bed but usually fail because he didn't get his nap so he is overexhausted.
17. Eat my dinner, feed Bella
18. Go to my room and attempt laying Bella down by herself. She usually gives me 20 mins before she wakes up and notices I am not holding her. I think to myself I cannot wait until she sleeps through the night!!!!
19. Get a hug from my super hard working husband try and have a conversation which usually ends in us being too tired to finish,. Clean up the kitchen and living room, fold some laundry which is all wrinkly now cause I was too busy to fold it when it finished drying. Then we say
prayers fall asleep....until Bella needs love or food which usually isn't very far off.
20.Do it all again
I love my kids I just feel like they are exeptionally demanding! Does anyone else ever feel like that? why are my kids sooooo hard when everyone else seems to have good kids? I just need a nanny!!!! ps...Please dont think I am a bad mother because my baby eats all the time and my 2 year old ends up running away from me in public.
